Dad?

When I come home from school
There's no one even there
It seems so cruel
That a child's dad isn't around
I hate being alone
I feel so scared
There's no one to hold me
There's no one to love me
He's supposed to be there when I need him

When I think of him I feel like a ghost
Someone unseen but who still is
When I am older I want to find him
I still have hope
Can he want me
Can he love me
I don't want to be hurt
But the chance to meet, to learn
To have a relationship
Is worth the try for him to love me
As I want to love him
